Haggai called the attention of the people to the fact that they had worked for their own maintenance and found themselves always in want. He reminded them that they had worked for themselves, building their own houses, and neglected working for the Lord and building up His house. When they begin the work of the Lord He promises to begin blessing them with abundance.
I have seen all my hard work come to scratching and clawing for survival but I have not consistently called upon the Lord. I need to learn how to do that consistently so that I may receive more blessings. I want the means to serve the Lord freely.
